Additional runoff from several heavy rainstorms continued to cause minor to moderate flooding along Spring Creek upstream of and downstream from Sheridan Lake. Releases from Pactola Reservoir reached 500 cubic feet per second, which combined with the heavy rain, caused minor to moderate flooding along Rapid Creek from Pactola Dam to the Cheyenne River.
